8. Зенитная артиллерия (детализация)
Класс систем: буксируемые и стационарные установки малого калибра
Ключевые примеры: ЗУ-23-2, С-60---
Роль в борьбе с Shahed
Это базовый «дешёвый слой» ПВО, который закрывает:
низкие высоты (50–1500 м)
финальный участок атаки (подход к цели)
вторичные направления (обход основных зон ПВО)
Работает там, где ракеты экономически избыточны.
---
Эффективность
Без модернизации: средняя
С доработками: высокая на коротких дистанциях
Факторы успеха:
плотность огня
корректное упреждение
раннее обнаружение
---
Ключевая проблема
Shahed:
малый ЭПР
низкая высота
шумовое обнаружение раньше визуального
👉 без внешнего целеуказания эффективность резко падает
---
Критические апгрейды (что реально работает)
1. Интеграция с РЛС / акустикой
→ перевод из «визуальной стрельбы» в управляемую2. Ночные прицелы / тепловизоры
→ рост эффективности ночью в разы3. Трассирующие и программируемые боеприпасы
→ корректировка огня в реальном времени4. Цифровые системы наведения (C2)
→ синхронизация с общей ПВО---
Тактика применения
эшелонирование вокруг городов и инфраструктуры
работа в связке с мобильными группами
перекрытие «дыр» между зонами ЗРК
---
Плюсы
крайне низкая стоимость выстрела
высокая доступность
простота масштабирования
---
Минусы
малая дальность
зависимость от обнаружения
ниже точность без модернизации
---
Вывод
Зенитная артиллерия — это не «устаревший элемент», а критический массовый слой ПВО, который:
разгружает дорогие системы
закрывает ближнюю зону
обеспечивает устойчивость обороны при массовых атаках
Без неё экономика перехвата «Shahed» просто не сходится.

Iran Deploys New 9-Dey Air Defense Missile System to Counter US and Israeli Aerial Threats.
The Iranian defense forces are ready to deploy their latest generation of air defense systems, including the 9-Dey, a new type of surface-to-air missile that uses the same 6x6 chassis as the Iranian-made Sevom Khordad road-mobile long-range high-altitude defense missile system. This system is fitted with a new missile launcher equipped with two blocks of four containerized missiles ready to fire. The future deployment of the 9-Dey comes amid rising tensions between Iran and Israel.
This is the system that took down 2 American MQ-9 drones in Shiraz today.
